3. Jacob Elordi

Jacob Elordi is another big name who burst on the acting scene in The Kissing Booth, Euphoria, and others. He’s starred in Priscilla, Saltburn, He Went That Way, Deep Water, and The Sweet East, as well, within the last two years. There’s no doubt Elordi is a rising star, and he’d be a great addition to Gunn and Safrann’s plans for DC.

We also have a look at what Elordi could look like as Batman, thanks to @clements.ink.

Like Hoult, Elordi is on the younger side of actors who could star as Bruce Wayne/Batman. He’s only 26 years old. If DC wants to start this next Batman’s story as more a young adult story, Elordi might be the guy.

Overall, I think Elordi has the range to star as Batman. While we haven’t seen Elordi in much of a comedy role outside of The Kissing Booth, which are not quality stories in my opinion, Elordi could probably pull off anything DC wants him to do or where they want to take the character. There’s no doubt he’s one of the most talented young actors in Hollywood. The future looks incredibly bright, but does it also look incredibly bat? We’ll find out soon!
